A shot of the poem next to the mandala in Kara Thrace's apartment (TRS: "Maelstrom").

Kara Thrace's old apartment on Caprica in the city of Delphi is filled with paintings on canvas as well as some wall paintings (TRS: "Valley of Darkness").

In the wall to the left of a curious circular painting that Thrace has doodled since she was a child ("The Eye of Jupiter," "Maelstrom"), the Viper pilot wrote a simple poem:

The poem written to the left of the mandala in Kara Thrace's apartment (TRS: "Valley of Darkness")

With every delicious sip

Stroking my hair to

The beat of his heart

Watching a boy turn into a man
